Nah. Why would she? She might be in 2:27 shape now with a neg split, but the Trials are 4 months off. By then she could completely unravel and knows it, so it would be silly for her to assume she might have another fast one in her.

bet you a nickel she is planning to run in both the marathon trials and the track trials.

Deena is just a class act, plain and simple. Andrew is, too. We will not forget the fact that the two of them put in the track at Mammoth with a lot of hard work and time. This performance and all the good to her legacy is well earned. Congrats to both of them. Great work.

That puts her at #4 among current qualifiers with just a few seconds down to Cragg at #3. Incredible that she has come from so far back after her glory days when she ran 2:19. 2:27 is just a tough time to get even for men. For American women, it was obviously too hard for anyone else to do it at Chicago this year, and she is a masters woman. Tremendous.
